After reading about contract law cases that are decided by one (mis)placed comma, so I see value in prescribing a "standard formal english" for Certified Serious Business situations. But considering a moral failing to not use it in any less serious situation is dumb. And stop being so anal about spelling, as long as two words don't outright get confused.

The formation of Tone-sian is an educational look at how a language can develop phonemic tones. Cool! Also, it's a reminder of how damn WEIRD tonal languages sound to the western ear. The West Virhomenian languages sound like any other language in proximity to Europe. East Virhomenian ones, very similar aside from the tones, sound like robot martians are trying to speak it. Not at all... um, what's the auditory equivalent of "photogenic"? I don't know the right word.

@@zzineohp Stupid old Danish joke: "I turned back at the doctor's door, since it had a sign: "Den næste dør"." It's a pun on 'dø?R' "dies" vs 'dœR' "door", so "The next (one) dies' vs. 'The next door', presumably with an arrow towards said door. So Danish distinguishes those two vowels and you don't know what you're talking about.
